"Isn't that what you offered to give me? I want it from you?" Yan Laoer almost spat his face with saliva.
The mine manager looked confused.
Subconsciously: "No...no..."
Didn't he want it? Did he remember it wrong? It seems... it seems... he didn't want it?
Manager Zhou quickly said: "Cinders can also be burned, they just need to be broken..."
He didn't say it was okay, but when he did, Yan Laoer was immediately lit like a firecracker.
"Manager Zhou, what do you mean? We in Guanzhou are only qualified to burn cinders? We are not qualified to process coal? Is that what you think? You look down on us, right?" Yan Laoer rolled his eyes, took a deep breath, and cried.
He came up and said, "Your Majesty—"
Manager Zhou quickly grabbed his hand: "Manager Yan, brother Yan, brother Yan! No, no, we can talk to each other easily. If anything happens, we can discuss it..." Don't bother the prince and the others!
"Brother Zhou, take a look." Yan Laoer pointed around: "We have hundreds of brothers watching. What do you think we should do about this today?"
Manager Zhou followed his finger and looked over. Everyone in Guanzhou looked at them with eager eyes. They worked hard for most of the night last night and they didn't get a good rest. Their eyes were all red and bloodshot. They heard that there was not enough coal in the morning and they were so angry that they were going to explode.
, at this time, his eyes were as wide as copper bells, and his fists were clenched tightly, as if a big fist would come over at the next moment.
Look at them again.
There are not many people in the mine here in winter, and they all stand quite far away.
If he really wanted to take action, he would be the first to suffer.
Yan Laoer threw the question out, staring at Manager Zhou with a pair of sad eyes, pointing his toes in the direction of the livestock shed, and tensing up his whole body, as if he would ride a bull straight to Fucheng and cry along the road if he disagreed.
Manager Zhou:......
you are vicious!
…
Shi Yunyan looked at Guanshi Yan's actions and felt that he had learned something again!
Facing Manager Zhou of Prince Qi's Mansion, Manager Yan showed grief and anger, being reasonable and... regardless of face.
I shouted "Prince, Crown Prince," but I didn't think he was disrespectful.
When it came to the mine manager, he had a stern tone and made him unable to lift his head. He was rude in giving orders. He didn't seem to be from Xizhou at all, but more like his subordinates...
The best thing is that he changes his face from left to right very quickly, which is staggering.
It's not inconsistent to switch back and forth half the time.
The manager that week knew that he was partly pretending and partly acting, but he still didn't dare to bet, so he could only pinch his nose to admit it.
Why fear?
It's nothing more than...Guanshi Yan has left the literary spirit behind.
He is the top scholar in Guanzhou Prefecture, but he behaves like a rogue in the market. He throws away his politeness just to save his face with his father and even Guanzhou...
Shi Yunyan lowered his eyes to cover the turbulent waves in his eyes.
Xizhou...King of Qi...
That's too much!
…
Yan Laoer thinks that his daughter's self-proclaimed name is very good, but the key is to save the strokes.
Then he raised his head and wrote:
Son:
Your old father's waist almost broke today!
At this point, there is still a dull pain.
Your father fought against the heroes and won a great victory!
We are being reasonable, aren't we? We should change our stance. Before, we were begging people to buy coal, but now they are not keeping their word, bullying the young prince, and not giving us any benefits. Don't think this matter will be over, unless they show their respect.
, Dad will make trouble to death!
Yan Yu:……
This young crown prince? You mean... the crown prince’s eldest brother?
She nodded seriously. She was younger than her father, so there was nothing wrong with her.
In addition to the original amount of coal, we also got a lot of cinders.
You may not know the benefits of this cinder.
Let me tell you, it’s good to mix mud with it and roll it into briquettes to burn on the fire. You’ll know when dad gets home and kneads a few for you...
Dad can help Guanzhou gain face this time.
The prince was so moved that he wanted to salute me, but my father just jumped to the side to avoid the salute. He didn't jump well enough and got sidetracked...
Actually, you don't need to be so polite. I accepted this job, right? You have to do it well, otherwise what would I be doing?
Well, isn't this just a matter of crying and making a fuss? What does it mean? But everyone around me thinks that your father has made a big sacrifice, and everyone looks at me in the wrong way, and the prince seems to be even more aggrieved than me... Actually
It's not necessary, but it's hard for us to say this. Alas, it's really a misunderstanding that's hard to explain.
By the way, dad has always forgotten to ask you, does the royal family have to pay for the business trip? If you don't know how to go back and ask secretly, you can't let people know that dad asked you to ask, understand? Secretly...
By the time you read this letter, our first batch of coal should have been pulled back.
As for dad, he can’t leave yet.
I have to stay in town.
Or because of cinders!
You said that the people of Xizhou are neither sharp nor stupid, but you dare to tell me that cinders are just a nuisance, and you can do whatever you want.
Hey! I have such a bad temper!
You look down on us, right?
Dad plans to teach them a lesson, don't speak too wildly, or you'll get slapped in the face easily!
Alas! I’m afraid I won’t be able to go back in a short time. If it wasn’t for dad, why don’t we have a few hard-working people like dad in Guanzhou, not even a replacement person to watch the scene...
By the way, when you return to Yongning, go to Xue's house and ask if Mr. Xue Qi is back?
Counting the days, it should be almost done, right?!
Yan Yu refolded the letter bit by bit.
Dad is thinking about Mr. Xue Qi, maybe he wants him to take over his job, right?
Not to mention, among the people they knew in Guanzhou, only Mr. Xue Qi could compare with his father. He could sacrifice his face when needed...
Yan Yu stroked what was written in her father's letter.
If there is insufficient coal, Xizhou promises to make up for it.
Her father wants to clear out all the cinders from their mine...
Yan Yu thought over and over again and decided to help her father.
There are many people, but there is great power!
…
By defeating the second group of Xizhou soldiers transporting coal, the militia gained more than expected.
They had coal, cattle and sheep, three carts of leather, a group of Guanzhou people who had been kidnapped in the early years, and two groups of Xizhou soldiers prisoners!
The Huju militia has opened, no, the group has opened with great success!
The harvest is not ordinary rich!
Everyone has a smile on their face, and the corners of their mouths are grinning from ear to ear. Once you go up, you can't get down.
"Boy, do we still want to take these Xizhou soldiers back?" Yan Xiangheng asked.
Ertie couldn't help but said: "There are too many people, and we have eaten and drank a lot just on this day."
It's better to go to Beirong, where you can be rewarded with silver per head, and you don't have to eat, drink or chew it.
"How can we let them have a living?" Yan Yu said matter-of-factly: "Pull them back to work for us. Aren't we going to have to build a high wall next year? We can't even supply the few stones in the quarry. It's just the right thing to do. Send it to them."
, let them help us quarry stones."
Ertie's eyes lit up.
"The quarry is great! The quarry is remote and no one goes there. Just throw it into the mine and I'm sure no one will know!"
Yan Xiangheng also thinks this is a good idea.
The quarry could become a penal colony because it is remote and easy to get in and out, so it is indeed very suitable.
